fmorriso Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Order date for my 09 FEH LTD 4x4 went in the morning the order bank opened 4/17. I have a copy of the DORA & VOC w/ priority 10. As of today I still do NOT have a VIN or build date. Dealer keeps saying they have no info from Ford Reps. Frustrating to say the least. Especially when I read from others who ordered months later & have theirs in the pipe. I ordered 4 days after you on 4/21/08 and my order is still sitting in the USOB with no VIN. Did you order anything besides the basic U59/750A? There are only two options available for a U59/750A: Navigation (60N) and side step bars (187). I ordered mine with both of those options, with exterior color choice of White Suede. What color did you order? Who knows, maybe there is some sort of "pattern" as to why the 4x4's like ours aren't being built yet. I'm in Virginia, near DC, if geography has anything to do with the delays.

mmdlcab Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 yup, your right. I should have said Escape / Mariner. Not only the hybrids. And my dealer did tell me the reason for only 25k was batteries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Lantern Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Good luck with that , mine was shipped June 30 and I am still waiting 19 days later. Good luck to both of you. Mine is scheduled to be built this coming Friday and my dealer has told me he has been informed to look for it the week of 8/4 to hit the lot.

I see your from Canada from your sticker and that may be the reason. More car haulers are coming and going to Florida so I'm hoping mine was loaded on the truck Friday. It still may be awhile depending on how many stops the truck has to make before it gets to Miami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I hope your right cause London is closer to Kansas City than Miami and mine has a 3 week head start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
